2．In 1590，the GLOBE was built using wood from an earlier theatre，which had been built by Richard Burbage's father，James Burbage，in Shoreditch in 1576.The first performance for which a firm record remains was Jonson's Every Man out of His Humour—with its fist scene welcoming the "gracious and kind spectator""- at the end of the ear.
On 29 h June 1613，the GLOBE Theatre went up in flames during a performance of Henry VII.A theatrical gun，set ff during the performance，misfired，burning the wooden beams and straws.According to one of the few surviving documents of the event，no one was hurt except a man whose burning breeches（炮后膛）were put out with a bottle of beer.It was rebuilt in the following year.

3．A fat man with a camera around his neck and a bottle of sunscreen cream sticking out of his bag，he really did look like a tourist.He sat on the terrace（平台），sipping lemonade and pretending to look at a tourism brochure.His sunglasses masked his eyes，but I knew he wasn't looking at the brochure：he hadn't turned a page for the last ten minutes.As I brought him his dishes，he coughed up a "thank you" and looked at me briefly I tried not to stare at the tiny scar across his left eyebrow.
I walked back inside with my empty tray，shaking my jye.aiad.He looked familiar，but I couldn't quite place him.Then it hit me.The car accident.The mysterious stranger who helped me out of my crashed car，just before it exploded.I rushed back to his table.He was gone.
I moved his saucer and found his tip，along with a card：I am deeply grateful to you.The night of your car accident，I was on my way to rob a jewelry store.Saving your life brought things back in a right way.I now live an honest life，thanks to you.God bless you!Mr.D.
I shivered（震颤）.The night of my car accident，I was heading for an interview in an illegal dance club.Seeing human kindness through his heroic gesture（英雄姿态）turned my life around and brought faith back into my life.I unfolded the tip he left.Among the singles was a grand（一千块）with a pen mark underlining "In God We Trust.

4．The destruction of the environment is one of the greatest problems we face today.Brown clouds，polluted water，endangered wild animal...，these problems seem so huge.
So my family does what we can.We take cloth bags to stores instead of using plastic bags.We walk where we don't have to drive.
But does it do any god？When I am the only one in line at the market with cloth bags，am I doing any good？Does my walking to stores make any real difference to the world？
I recently learned something about flamingos（火烈鸟）which like to get together in groups of a thousand or more.Every year when the time comes for migration（迁徙），a few of them first take of from the lake.But none of the others seem to notice，so the small group returns.However，the next day they try again.This time a few more fly along with them，but most of them still pay no attention，so they return again.They try for several times.Every time a few more birds join in but，since the thousands of others still take no notice，the great migration plan is once more stopped.
Then one day something changes.The same small group of birds once again starts flying and a small number more join in just as before，then more.Finally，they all take flight and the migration really begins.What a spectacular sight it must be-thousands of flamingos taking of into the sky at once!
A few can make a difference.Even f you're the one to take the fist step，and continue trying，others will someday take notice and together we will solve even our greatest problems.
